2016 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque 2.0L Diesel · PA 0503

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having a clean pass in its most recent inspection on 1 May 2025 at 41,752 miles. This result followed a failure just one week prior on 24 April 2025 at 41,733 miles. Although the record shows no specific defects for that initial failure, the immediate retest suggests an administrative error or a minor rectification that was resolved quickly, indicating a stable maintenance trend moving forward. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,175 miles per year. The 19-mile difference between the April and May 2025 tests indicates that the car was used for very short distances leading up to its latest MOT or likely sat stationary for extended periods. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it often introduces risks related to rubber-based part degradation and brake corrosion if the vehicle is not driven regularly at varying speeds. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on signs of stagnation common in low-mileage cars. Specifically, check the tyres for flat spotting and the brake system for seized calipers or corroded discs resulting from inactivity. Given the Range Rover Evoque's complex suspension, inspect the rubber bushes and control arm mounts for cracking which occurs with age regardless of distance driven. Ensure the chassis remains free of structural rust, as the low mileage does not protect the vehicle from environmental corrosion over a decade.
